To get anywhere near the 60 + medals bracket here is a guide to some of our top medal chances

Best Remaining Medal Chances for GB.

Today


Silver/Gold – Men’s Team Pursuit

Possible Silver – Women’s Team Pursuit.

Athletics

Matt Hudson-Smith

Katarina Johnson-Thompson


4x100 Relays – Both

Cycling

Emma Finucane – Keirin and Sprint

Taekwondo

Bradley Sinden

Weightlifting

Emily Campbell

Modern Pentathlon

Joe Chong and Kate French

There's quite a few more:
Diving men's and women's 3m Springboard - 2 medals possible. - Jack Laugher, Jordan Houlden, Grace Reid

Always a chance in the sailing races.

Sport Climbing - Men's Boulder and Lead - Toby Roberts

Probably get at least 2 or 3 more medals on top of Finucane in the cycling.

Wouldn't rule out a surprise 800m Men's or 4x400m medal.


I reckon 15 more medals at least, hopefully 6 of those gold.

Cheers for this -great news. I wasn’t aiming for a complete list just where I thought our best hopes lie. Anything to get us up to 60 medals :-)
Being a FOC I just worked out we have the worst Gold to Overall medal ratio of the Top Ten nations :-(.
 
Men's team pursuit coming up now, guaranteed silver, which is what I think we get. Australia looked a lot stronger in the heats.
 
Brilliant race.

Obviously a huge error on the last lap but I don't think we'd have won anyway, the lad did well to stay on his bike.

We were closer than anyone thought we would be.
 
Fucking Aussie cunts, having a cracker of a day today. Gutted we didn't get a tighter finish there, I'm sure the Aussies would have still won it but would have been close.

Although not ideal, I bet medal per population size we're doing well.
